SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
Additions
On 9/19/2008 and 10/03/2008, the Committee for Purchase From People
Who Are Blind or Severely Disabled published notice (73 FR 183, page
54366 and 73 FR 193, page 57590 respectively) of proposed additions to
the Procurement List.
After consideration of the material presented to it concerning
capability of qualified nonprofit agencies to provide the services and
impact of the additions on the current or most recent contractors, the
Committee has determined that the services listed below are suitable
for procurement by the Federal Government under 41 U.S.C. 46-48c and 41
CFR 51-2.4.
Regulatory Flexibility Act Certification
I certify that the following action will not have a significant
impact on a substantial number of small entities. The major factors
considered for this certification were:
1. The action will not result in any additional reporting,
recordkeeping or other compliance requirements for small entities other
than the small organizations that will furnish the services to the
Government.
2. The action will result in authorizing small entities to furnish
the services to the Government.
3. There are no known regulatory alternatives which would
accomplish the objectives of the Javits-Wagner-O'Day Act (41 U.S.C. 46-
48c) in connection with the services proposed for addition to the
Procurement List.
End of Certification
Accordingly, the following services are added to the Procurement
